Robert:
if you were a cook in 72, then we must have worked togeather. I did mess cooking in 72, I met the ship in the Phillipean Islands. I moved on to G-Division Mag Crew and Flight Deck Crew. My name is Michael but everyone on board use to call me MOUSE. because I was so small. Do you remember the riots we had on the ship when comming back from Viet Nam? Their was a first class called Person he use to make me go on top of the vents in the Galley and clean the grease off them. What a nasty job that was. I would skate doing that job though, I'd take a nap for 30 minutes or so, and Person never caught on to me. I must have cracked a million eggs on that job. Boaring...Fair Winds and Following Seas.
